eBook: The Best Advice I Ever Got

Well, these are lessons, and this is an education collection.  This is more of a lesson of how to take a book and butcher it to death to be less than 1MB.  It looks like crap afterwards.  Teenagers might like it, when they have to research a favorite celebrity.  I've seen that lesson 1000 times.

But seriously, it was a good read.  I think it is more of "I asked people to write advice for me, and I wrote the introduction, the rest is what they wrote."  As teachers we reflect on things to get meaning.  This is just a list of things, not in any order, not to make any point.  Just random things.  We don't often come across things like this in our world.  Usually things have to have a point.  Have a developmental path maybe.  Some structure.  Well, there are chapter headings.

We often don't get to find out HOW famous people really think and how they write.  This seems like some people actually wrote these words THEMSELVES.  And some of the celebrities are full of nonsense and can't put a sentence together.  The best ones can give their advice in one sentence.  Dr Phil goes on and on.  Helen Miren is short and meaningful.  Hugh Jackman is just as sickening as always.  Yes, be ambiguous.  It doesn't mean you are smart.  Or straight.  I can say that.  I'm allowed.

Thanks Beyonce for this - Choose to be happy and positive. Oh, thank you.  I will.  Wow. I'm happy now.  Don't need those pills anymore.

UPDATE: Get this.  You get to the end, and you find out Ms Kouric didn't collect the advice, but stole it from other books, written by the celebrities.  She's not Ms Popular at all.  She just stole sentences out of other books to make her book. It should be named "What my assistant copied and pasted."
